Tristan completed is PhD in Ifremer Sète (2006-2007) and at the University of Oslo (2007-2008) under the supervision of Jean-Marc Fromentin and Nils Christan Stenseth. After a postdoc in Oslo (2009-2010) working on fisheries time series analysis, he integrated Ifremer in 2012 and since 2016 he is the scientific correspondent for Bluefin tuna at Ifremer. His interests are data analysis, the tagging of large pelagics and more generally in situ observation of large pelagics.

Davide Thambithurai

Biologiste spécialiste des poissons et physiologiste comparatif. Ses recherches portent sur la relation entre organismes aquatiques et les humains, des schémas de distribution à grande échelle aux changements au niveau cellulaire. Il est particulièrement intéressé par l'interaction entre le comportement, la physiologie et l'écologie fonctionnelle. Il a une grande expérience à la fois sur le terrain et en laboratoire  et également un bagage quantitatif important, avec une solide base statistique utilisant des techniques d'analyse des données utilisant à la fois des approches fréquentistes et bayésiennes dans R.
